New wells, drilled right the first time.
People have been digging wells for thousands of years. Today, truck-mounted drilling is the preferred way to build one, and it's what we've done in Bay County since 1970. We handle the whole job, from choosing the site and pulling the permit to setting the pump and testing the water.
Residential wells
Drinking water wells for homes on private water, new construction and replacements.
Irrigation wells
Lawn and garden wells that keep sprinklers off your drinking water supply.
Commercial & agricultural
Wells sized for businesses, livestock and crops.
Replacement wells
When an old well fails or the casing is compromised, we drill a new one.
Well inspections
Inspections of the casing, seal and equipment, often requested during a home sale.
Capping & plugging
Abandoned wells must be properly plugged under a permit. We do it the right way.
What's under your property
A well is a bore hole lined with casing, usually plastic, carbon steel or stainless steel. The local geology determines what casing is appropriate and how deep we need to go to reach a good, steady supply.
How the job goes
- Site visit. We check how much water you need and where the well can go, with the required setbacks from septic tanks, buildings and other hazards.
- Permit. A well construction permit from the Northwest Florida Water Management District is required, and only a Florida licensed water well contractor can apply for it. We take care of it.
- Drilling. We drill to a good water-bearing zone, set and seal the casing, and develop the well until it runs clean.
- Pump and hookup. We install the pump, pressure tank and controls, with plumbing and electrical connections.
- Testing. We test the water and disinfect the well before you use it.
Check your well's casing and seal cap now and then. Cracks or damage let surface water and insects in, and can cause water loss. If you see damage, give us a call.
